The Captain Bligh's Ethos

We are an actual brewery. This means we brew weekly, our ales are always available, they’re fresh; our facilities are accessible to visit, wholesale customers are able to participate in the brewing process, and we will be here next week and the one after! The food (drink) miles are low. There’s a diversity of choice and the advantage of small batch rarity. We can produce ‘something special’ as a one off exclusive release. We’re also a genuine part of Tasmanian history, present and future.
